Answer:
Cindy made 3 decorations with the ribbons
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Cindy used 1/10 of a metre of ribbon to make just one decoration that she obtained by dividing 3/10 of a meter of ribbon into equal parts, then we can calculate the number of decorations that Cindy made. In this scenario, all we need is an idea on how to divide fractions and we are good to go.
If Cindy used 1/10 of a metre obtained by dividing 3/10 of a metre of ribbon to make decorations, then the number of decorations she made can be gotten by dividing 3/10 by 1/10
i.e 3/10 ÷ 1/10
= 3/10 × 10/1
= 3 decorations.
That is she used 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10 = 3/10 to make (3 decorations).
The slope of the given line is the coefficient of x, 3/5. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(3/5) = -5/3.
The point-slope form of the equation for a line of slope m through point (h, k) can be written ...
... y = m(x -h) +k
For your point and the slope found above, this becomes
... y = (-5/3)(x -15) -5
When x=0, this is
... y = (-5/3)(-15) -5 = 20
The y-intercept is 20.
To change a percent to a fraction, you remove the percent sign and put the given number over 100. For example, if you are given 78%, it would be 78/100 or 39/50
I think the answer is shelter B
